Trump And Biden - A Strange Consortium

While it was a strange consortium, Huffington Post reported that the two men, who belong on opposing political parties, sat relatively near each other. Biden is among the staunch critics of the policies of Donald Trump. He also criticized his campaign tactics. Despite the differences, both Joe Biden and Donald Trump were not keen at throwing criticisms at each other but were set on supporting their family members on that memorable day.

Donald Trump cheered on his daughter, Tiffany. He was there with his wife Melania Trump, and his ex-wife, Marla Maples, was also at the event.

Joe Biden was there with his wife Jill Biden to cheer on his granddaughter, Naomi Biden, said Fox News. Reports also have it that, Naomi, was the name of the 1-year-old daughter whom Biden had lost in a car accident in 1972. It was also in the same accident where Biden lost his first wife.

1,500 Graduates Of The School Of Arts And Sciences
